- 1847 Liberty Seated Quarter. Briggs 1-A, FS-801. Doubled Die Reverse. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC. OGH.
This pretty example exhibits soft undertones of gold, powder blue and pale pink to otherwise pearl gray surfaces. Soft and satiny in texture with an uncommonly smooth appearance for the assigned grade that is suggestive of Choice Uncirculated quality. In circulated grades, the 1847 is one of the more readily obtainable Liberty Seated quarters from the 1840s. Like all Philadelphia Mint issues from that decade, however, Mint State survivors are scarce to rare in all grades and underrated in today's market. The reverse die confirms the FS-801 attribution, with bold doubling to many of the letters around the reverse periphery. When paired with Briggs Obverse 2 (as opposed to Obverse 1, offered here), the attribution expands to include a Repunched Date. The FS-801 attribution is not noted on the old style PCGS insert.
Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
PCGS Population: 6; 20 finer (MS-65 finest).
PCGS# 5410. NGC ID: 23SX.
